Methinks the police have a bit to much time on there hands here.
A motorist has been fined for defrosting his car outside his home because he left it unattended with the engine running.
Ken Hardman was given a £30 fixed penalty notice for leaving his engine on to warm up his car during the cold snap in the morning.
He was prosecuted under the Road Traffic Act offence of 'quitting' which is when a person leaves their vehicle's engine running while they are not in it.
The 45-year-old was visited by a police officer as part of Operation Cold Start which targets residential areas of Chorley and Leyland in Lancashire where car thieves are operating.
**Still not that I would ever think that the police would sooner focus on easy targets like motorists, rather than say drug dealers, anti social chav scum, feral youth defacing war memorials and so on.

The police are fast losing the confidence and support of ordinary folks who once supported them.
In the backwoods where i live, they can always find enough police to stop traffic and check every car for any faults,causing mayhem and disruption when people are trying to get to work.
Meanwhile,.....the chavs and burglars heve free rein, and the best plod can do is to appeal to the public for help.
Absolutely usless.........
Very true the main problem is the fact that police are given quota's and motorists are an easy score.
Still thats what 10 years of New Labour has given us.
Send me your money!
Where are the UK's police when "Asian" gangs are getting young girls hooked on drugs and cultivating them as prostitutes?
Where are the UK's police when Saudi-funded mullahs spew their anit-West Wahhabi venom in UK's mosques?
What about the citizens of the UK -- don't they have any rights?
Outrageous!
We have no need for them they are just robbers.
Would you care to take part in some daft (meme thingy) with your eight best wishes for 2008
All the best!
Shall do the 8 best wishes for 2008 later today Dizzy. An Yankee we are waking up to the fact that we have become second class subjects in a cabel run by socialists.
FFS!
Something like this happened to me about 10 years ago.
I got in my car, started it and realized I had left something I needed indoors. So I looked around and couldn't see a soul for miles and quickly dashed inside.
15 to 20 seconds later I come back to find two coppers standing there who ask me:
"Is this your car sir?".
So I got a dressing down but didn't get charged with anything. Now this happened about 10 in the morning. There is never any crime where I live at that time of the day.
Come night time when the chavs, wiggers, niggers and assorted human garbage are smashing up bus stops, spraying up graffiti over every one's property and generally running amok then you don't see hide nor hare of the rozzers.
CNUTS!
Nothing like priorities ey, the moral decay of Britain and the west continues.
All about control and raising taxes from oppressing the motorist, the police in this case seem to be little more than the uniformed branch of HM Customs & Excise.
